Miss Colombia Gracefully Responds To Steve Harvey’s Colossal Mistake

Our source said there is “no way” the mistake was done for publicity, as some news outlets have questioned, but could be chalked up to Harvey simply being under-rehearsed.

The Miss Universe 2015 pageant has been absolutely filled with turmoil and controversy, and it doesn’t stop with Steve Harvey’s mistakes.

While Harvey took the blame onstage, a behind-the-scenes Snapchat post, which is no longer accessible, showed the comedian claiming that the teleprompter fed him the wrong name.

Video footage shows Wurtzbach looking confused and stunned as she returns to the front of the stage next to Miss Colombia, and Harvey goes off script to explain that he read his cue card wrong. “The name of the victor is not in the prompter [because] they don’t want the girls to see it”, the source added. Miss Colombia Ariandna Miss Colombia was forced to hand over her crown to Pia Wurtzbach in not so pleasant moment.

Even Juan Manuel Santos, the president of Colombia, chimed in to say how very proud of Miss Colombia he was, and he tweeted that Gutierrez is still Colombia’s Miss Universe.

Has Miss Colombia won, it would have been the second consecutive year for a Miss Colombia to nab the Miss Universe title, after last year’s crowned victor, Paulina Vega.

“Everything happens for a reason, so I’m happy”, she said.

Steve Harvey and the Miss Universe organization didn’t immediately return requests for comment.
